The Celebration of Molteni & C’s 90th Anniversary
A first in 90 years of history, Molteni Mondo presents a cinematic view of the world of Molteni & C, revealing the stories behind the collaborations with our prestigious lineup of world-renowned design protagonists.

“We want to be narrative-driven and to tell stories so that people can understand the company. Not only see the company, but also understand this “mondo” sensibility. I’m continuously working with and toward that mondo.” – Vincent Van Duysen
